Golden Globes: 'Fargo' wins Best TV Miniseries or Movie

Fargo won two Golden Globes early on during Sunday night’s show, winning Best TV Miniseries or Movie while Billy Bob Thornton took home the award for Best Actor in a TV Miniseries or Movie.

Fargo previously won the Emmy Award last year for Outstanding Miniseries. Executive producer Noah Hawley accepted the award and mentioned that he and the show’s crew were ready to head back into the cold for filming season two.

The FX miniseries is based on the Coen brothers film of the same name, and included Allison Tolman, Martin Freeman, Thornton, and many more among its season 1 cast.

Inspired by the 1996 Coen brothers film, ‘Fargo’ is a “true crime” story set in small-town Minnesota. A chance meeting between mild-mannered insurance salesman Lester Nygaard (Martin Freeman) and drifter Lorne Malvo (Billy Bob Thornton) sets into motion a series of dark events that involves murder, blackmail, and the mob.
